Sorry I thought it was the italian community! My mistake!
I would like to know what is the AT frequency that I would get connecting a wifi 5 device to an Orbi RKB852. If I connect my iMac to Orbi RKB752 I get "866Mbps". Would I get an higher value if I were using an Orbi RKB852?
I'm talking about this value (in the pic there is the value I got with the previous ISP router)

What is the model of the imac. Older iMacs may not support higher connection rates. Contact Apple support to see what connection rates are supported on you mac. My 2018 mac book pro caps at 1300Mpbs but it's not AX supporting.

It's the last iMac avaible. Airport Extreme doesn not support 802.11AX but 802.11AC up to 1300Mbps but I don't know why with Orbi RKB752 it gets "only" 866Mbps. I thought that wifi speed was up to 1200Mbps.

What OSX version is loaded?
Yes. Should be 1200 on 5Ghz.
"600 + 1200 + 2400Mbps"
Be sure WMM is enabled. I don't think changing CTS values will help, though you can try. Under Advanced Tab/Advanced Settings/Wireless Settings change to 1500 or 2347 and see.
